I saw it today at the store, at 7:50am to be exact. I will get some today but was focused on the ORVW 10/107 I had picked up. Looks to be a nice tequila. They have a single barrel selection of case noble Anejo and blanco as well.

For those thy may think I have a problem being at TPS at 7 am. They had their van winkle release this morning. Some how they had the VWFR rye available. I was two back in line when the guy grabbed the last one.

Tequila Ocho is a good tequila, but is very overpriced. For $75+, I'll wait to try this one. The last two Ochos that I had weren't worth the price for certain.

My brother gave me a bottle of 1800 reposado. After reading many negative reviews on it, I have to say, I kinda like it.

I think the nose is the best attribute..... butter rum life savers/butterscotch.

The palate isn't great, but I don't find it to be all that bad; it's quite drinkable, IMO.

Everyone likes what they like. It's one of my least favorite only because of the strong astringent alcohol taste. It just kills any agave or aging flavor to me. But there's plenty of stuff that I really like that other people wouldn't.

Re: Tequila Forum

Gonna need another bottle of Clase Azul soon. My wife likes it in a marg and I gave 3 oz to a friend.
Last night I made a big guava marg for me and a small mango marg for my wife. pureed fresh fruit for both. they were ok, but kind of like a "lemontini" being a martini--NOT. It's like a fruity drink with tequila. Will probably be going back to traditional marg recipe.

also got mini bottle of Kah blanco--love skulls

Re: Tequila Forum

The on-line order has been placed: Fortaleza Blanco, Muchote Reposado, Corrido Anejo and Dos Lunas Anejo. Can't wait for them to arrive. Last night, after the Rangers-Devils game, we sat outside and enjoyed a few bottles of Bohemia and several pours of El Jimador Reposado (light and refreshing) and Sauza Hornitos (crisp and clean). Nothing fancy but a great night just the same!
